Quotes
Zak Foulkes
New Zealand all-rounder
“Obviously they got a bit of a partnership going, we knew they would at some stage, and it coincided with the ball stopping swinging. Duff has taken on that enforcer role, which is awesome. It's great to see. And then we actually saw it swing again at the end, which was interesting.”
